Hello there!
Doing my best impression of MKBHD So I’ve been living in the mountains for almost 10 days now, and I’m all settled in! With this move, I realized that apparently all I need in life is good internet (to video call my girlfriend, duh). I’m just trolling, but I really can’t find things to complain about — I mean look at the view from my evening jog!
I took the entire last week of from work thinking I’d need that time to help get settled in, and I’m back on my setup. I found out something: it gets difficult to type in really cold weather. 😅 Also, congratulations to everyone who completed Hacktoberfest this year! 🥳

That’s all for now, have a great week! I would always link to COVID19India.org here, but they announced that they were sunsetting the project. It feels right, with things slowly but surely getting back to normal — shoutout to everyone who worked on it. If you read this far, thank you! You’re a gem and I appreciate you.
Stay kind 💜
